Pros: This video card has been phenomenal and I have experienced no problems whatsoever. For those looking to get the best bang for your buck, this card uses the same GPU chipset as the 4850 (which runs at ~$140) and the 4870 (~$170-200). When overclocked, this card outperforms the 4850 and is comparable to the 4870. Did I mention this card has tremendous overclocking potential? Also VERY surprised to be able to run Crysis Warhead on 1680x1050 (full resolution for me) at maximum gamer settings without any lag in play. WoW runs as smooth as a baby's bottom on highest settings as well, and colors look great. ATI Catalyst software also pretty useful in helping you find maximum sustainable overclock (overdrive told me I could go to 690mhz cpu/1165 memory)

Cons: -The card itself doesn't look terribly attractive, but this really isn't a concern because it's inside the case most of the time anyway and performs extremely well. -memory doesn't overclock as well as the the GPU (read below) -have to wait for rebate

Overall Review: The recommended overclock settings as determined by ATI overdrive works for most games. I found that for the most intense game I have (Crysis warhead), i had to backdown the memory overclock to 965mhz to avoid artifacts ingame. Surprisingly, this did not affect my 3dmark 06 benchmarks much at all. -Also, i recommend other GPU overclocking programs (like RT) to do your overclocking, but use the ATI overdrive to find your maximum potential (but tone down ur memory settings a bit to around 1000mhz)

Pros: ...to find a great overclocking motherboard....FOUND IT!! This motherboard is an amazing deal at its price--the quality is of a mother board priced at $250+ but for less than $140. I highly recommend you to buy this if you are looking for a board that can sustain high FSB and tight voltage control. -Very good looking mobo with nice north/south bridge heat sinks -Board is PERFECT if you have a low multiplier CPU (ie. q9400) -Good placement of PCIe slots to allow for crossfire configurations -Sturdy board with dual copper layer to minimize bending with those stupid pushpin heatsink fasteners -on and on...

Cons: -The CPU and MCH reference voltage needs to be manually set (see below) -makes you wanna keep building computers because this mobo is just so...soo...goood....

Overall Review: CPU and MCH reference voltage needs to be adjusted in way that you have to calculate it from your vtt (termination voltage). So if you have your vtt set at 1.30 v and you want 0.67x, then you need to set it to 0.871v. Once you do that, bios will recognize you want 0.67x (as opposed to default of 0.63) and then readjust CPU/MCH ref voltage automatically thereafter whenever you change the Vtt.
